                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Today our prayer is taken from the Jewish Book of Service, Daily 
Prayers.
  Let us pray.
  We gratefully acknowledge that You are the eternal one, our God, and 
the God of our fathers evermore; the Rock of our life and the Shield of 
our salvation. You are He who exists to all ages. We will therefore 
render thanks unto You and declare Your praise for our lives, which are 
delivered into Your hands, and for our souls, which are confided in 
Your care; for Your goodness, which is displayed to us daily; for Your 
wonders and Your bounty, which are at all times given unto us. You are 
the most gracious, for Your mercies never fail. Evermore do we hope in 
You, O Lord our God. Amen.
